It rains continuously.

[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] With a paper umbrella, alone I tread, Through a lingering lane where rain is shed. Long it winds, desolate and stark, A trail of silence in the watery dark. [build-up] [shakuhachi solo] [Chorus] I yearn to meet on this somber stroll, A maiden with the sorrow of a soulful toll. She'd harbour hues of lilac bloom, A scent of sorrow...a perfumed gloom... [drop] [shakuhachi solo] [Verse 2] With melancholy tinted on her face, The mourning hue of a lilac's grace. In the rain, she grieves with quiet plea, Lamenting, wandering, just like me. [Chorus] I yearn to meet on this somber stroll, A maiden with the sorrow of a soulful toll. She'd harbour hues of lilac bloom, A scent of sorrow...a perfumed gloom... [shakuhachi solo] [drop] [Verse 3] As she silently comes nearer, with a sighing gaze, Her presence fleeting, like a lilac's dreamy haze. Beside me drifts this lady, through the dreamscape wide, Silent in her movement, yet overwhelmingly implied... yet overwhelmingly implied... [Chorus] I yearn to meet on this somber stroll, A maiden with the sorrow of a soulful toll. She'd harbour hues of lilac bloom, A scent of sorrow...a perfumed gloom... [shakuhachi solo] [drop] [Bridge] She then moves away, farther, to the crumbling fence, Walking through this rainy lane, her absence intense. In the rain's lament, her color fades into the night, Her fragrance, her sigh-like look, her melancholy light... [Outro] With my paper umbrella, alone I wander in this extended lane, Long, long and deserted, where the rain sings of pain. I hoped for one like lilac, bound in mournful grace, A maiden wrapped in sorrow, vanishing without a trace... [shakuhachi solo] [fade to end] [end] [Outro] With my paper umbrella, alone I wander in this extended lane, Long, long and deserted, where the rain sings of pain. I hoped for one like lilac, bound in mournful grace, A maiden wrapped in sorrow, vanishing without a trace... [shakuhachi solo] [fade to end] [end] [Chorus] I yearn to meet on this somber stroll, A maiden with the sorrow of a soulful toll. She'd harbour hues of lilac bloom, A scent of sorrow...a perfumed gloom... [shakuhachi solo] [drop] [Bridge] She then moves away, farther, to the crumbling fence, Walking through this rainy lane, her absence intense. In the rain's lament, her color fades into the night, Her fragrance, her sigh-like look, her melancholy light... [Outro] With my paper umbrella, alone I wander in this extended lane, Long, long and deserted, where the rain sings of pain. I hoped for one like lilac, bound in mournful grace, A maiden wrapped in sorrow, vanishing without a trace... [shakuhachi solo] [fade to end] [end] [Outro] With my paper umbrella, alone I wander in this extended lane, Long, long and deserted, where the rain sings of pain. I hoped for one like lilac, bound in mournful grace, A maiden wrapped in sorrow, vanishing without a trace... [shakuhachi solo] [fade to end] [end] [Chorus] I yearn to meet on this somber stroll, A maiden with the sorrow of a soulful toll. She'd harbour hues of lilac bloom, A scent of sorrow...a perfumed gloom... [shakuhachi solo] [drop] [Bridge] She then moves away, farther, to the crumbling fence, Walking through this rainy lane, her absence intense. In the rain's lament, her color fades into the night, Her fragrance, her sigh-like look, her melancholy light... [Outro] With my paper umbrella, alone I wander in this extended lane, Long, long and deserted, where the rain sings of pain. I hoped for one like lilac, bound in mournful grace, A maiden wrapped in sorrow, vanishing without a trace... [shakuhachi solo] [fade to end] [end] [Outro] With my paper umbrella, alone I wander in this extended lane, Long, long and deserted, where the rain sings of pain. I hoped for one like lilac, bound in mournful grace, A maiden wrapped in sorrow, vanishing without a trace... [shakuhachi solo] [fade to end] [end]
